Explain the problem as you see it
Tana currently allows the user to read a PDF file without leaving the app. Currently, however, extracting text from that PDF requires to manually copy the relevant text or switch to a different app (e.g. Readwise Reader)
Why is this a problem for you?
Both manually copying the relevant text from the PDF or switching to a different app (e.g. Readwise Reader) create frictions.
Suggest a solution
Integrate in Tana a native PDF annotator that would allow users to annotate files PDF documents once these have been added to Tana and export these annotations as nodes.

Yeah! Need this feature to complete the workflows involving referencing pdfs. It would also be great, if the different extracts or nodes allows to link reference to a particular position in the pdf.
Definitely a must-have!
Remnote nailed it regarding pdf and even epub annotation!
Logseq has this option but we need ASAP native in Tana.
How is it going?
Definitely must have for me, too.
The lack of this feature is the main reason that holds me back from moving my LifeOS entirely to Tana.
I'm looking forward to Tana having this feature!
This is exactly what i want. I used to use it in logseq and roam.
